The aircraft soon proved to be superior to the Japanese Zero and played a major part in the destruction of Japan's elite air forces in the South Pacific. Later, in an effort to counter the Kamikaze threat, the Corsair was once again hurriedly pressed into service; this time in its originally intended role as a shipboa ..."

the alluring shibboleth of developing a single aircraft for the RAF and RN. They
settled on Hawker's proposed P.1154 vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) jet,

both services opted for the Phantom, but additional time was lost. Eventually the
vertical and short takeoff and landing ..."
